You are managing an Oracle Base Database Service instance configured with Data Guard in OCI. Due to a severe networking anomaly, the standby database falls significantly behind in applying redo. You decide to rebuild the standby database from an incremental backup taken on the primary. Which Recovery Manager (RMAN) command or process is used to synchronize the standby with the new incremental backup?

When designing high availability for stateless web servers in OCI, which combination of services provides automatic scaling and load distribution across multiple Availability Domains?

Your organization has a strict Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of 5 minutes and Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of 15 minutes for a multi-tier application. The database tier uses Oracle Data Guard. During a test drill, you notice that redo transport lag spikes to 8 minutes. What is the most likely architectural bottleneck causing this issue?

Your organization uses OCI Full Stack Disaster Recovery to manage failovers between Region A and Region B. During a DR drill, you notice that a custom user-defined step failed because the dependent compute instance in Region B was not yet fully running. How should you resolve this dependency issue in the FSDR plan?

An application running on OCI compute instances requires disaster recovery protection. You want to replicate boot volumes and block volumes to a secondary region. Which OCI Block Volume feature facilitates this?
